Yes it is not which I'm not into at all, but I'm just desperate at this stage BlushSad

If it helps you feel better, why not. It's all over my Facebook feed bizarrely, or not bizarrely at all as I googled it, now that I think of it. Between now & then you could just try to get gently back on track, I get how you're feeling though, it's a bit shit & miserable.
Super busy day, went for a walk & a podcast after dinner. With my Fitbit screen bust it's living in my bra so I have no idea how many steps unless I check the app. Got nearly 16,500! Gob is well & truly smacked

Just been out for a run. It is foggy. Very bizarre.

Home with a cup of tea. No breakfast as am IF.

I agree if it helps do it. It's not much different to using shake for one meal. But I world only use it for 1 meal. You could use our for a boost though

WreckTangled · 22/09/2020 07:07

I'm still weigh up Blush I did eat a lot yesterday though. Will have a better day today.

Not2bObvious · 22/09/2020 08:01

Down 1lb on yesterday, 3.4lb down in the last week. If only it were like that all the time! That half my overall gain gone, I'd love to say for good but that's unlikely.

Mrsmadevans · 22/09/2020 14:06

Not2bObvious · 22/09/2020 15:07

You're a good neighbour mrs - you sound like an all round decent human being full stopThanks Don't forget to mind yourself with all the minding/helping everyone else. I fell into a caring/helping/supporting role over the last 5 years due to deaths/illness etc and at some times I've felt wrung our

Back to it tomorrow Smile

Not2bObvious · 22/09/2020 18:39

I am not used to working full days - I am wrecked. I'm in that kind of mood where I want something "nice" but what exactly I can't decide! This could be dangerous as I might easily graze my way around the kitchen

lifelongfrugaleer · 22/09/2020 20:05

Totm nuff said. 6k steps

Not2bObvious · 23/09/2020 07:36

Up down, up down,
Midnight dog walk = tired. Bonus is decorators in kitchen so no easy access

Mrsmadevans · 23/09/2020 08:55

A new day hopefully one that keeps me from the cupboard 🙄
Have a good day everybody 😃

Happierwithouthim · 23/09/2020 09:20

I didn't even weigh this morning

lifelongfrugaleer · 23/09/2020 10:39

It's national fitness day. She says sat on her ass

Happierwithouthim · 23/09/2020 11:00

I'd say I won't partake either, the coughing this morning was like a smokers cough [sick]

Not2bObvious · 23/09/2020 13:57

Ha haha good luck with that! I've just been standing up every hour or so and doing a few steps. I'm up to 11,000 so far, although I got half of that at 6am

Mrsmadevans · 23/09/2020 20:56

Been really busy so been very on it today thankfully Smile

Not2bObvious · 24/09/2020 08:20

Morning - found the .4 I'd lost yesterday, that's pretty normal. Another desk day, trying to get a few steps in before 9. Piddling rain here too. Still feeling positive though, going to try really hard tomorrow not to cock up. If I can stick to maintenance at l least

Happierwithouthim · 24/09/2020 13:56

Just at dentist for scale & polish that'll prevent me eating for a couple of hours!!

lifelongfrugaleer · 24/09/2020 15:22

Ridiculous eating today. Cold and tired.

Not2bObvious · 24/09/2020 18:49

This close to breaking open the wine but I won't. Cold & tired here too life, add hungry into my mix. Going to check mfp & see what I've left. New Fitbit arrived, hurrah can take the faulty one out of my bra😂

lifelongfrugaleer · 25/09/2020 06:58

Stay this week but dunno how. Bugger all steps and too much crap. Start again Saturday as more house chaos today
